Spoiled by Wet n Wild ~ Are Mermaids Real?

Spoiled by Wet n
Wild ~ Are Mermaids Real?

Medium dusty purple
with golden glass flecks

I got this polish in a swap
with Katee from A girl and her Polish. I must admit that I didn’t quite know
what to do with it when I first got it, since I’m not a gold lover. But all of
a sudden it struck me. I could make a Mermaid Mani with it.

So let’s find out if
mermaids are real, shall we?

Application wasn’t as big a
challenge as with the other Spoiled polishes I’ve tried on. The brush is just
as wide, and the formula is quite thick. But I managed this one without
problems.

I applied two coats for full
opacity. And here’s how that looked without a top coat on:

And from another angle:

Then I decided to cover up
some of the golden tones, so I sponged the tips with Sinful Colors
Green Ocean,
which is such a cool flakie that sparkles green and teal.

Now for the stamping! I
stamped a scale pattern from Mash plate number 39, and used a purple no name
suede called “Suzi skis in the Pyrenees”,
which is my favourite purple polish for stamping.

Here is the final result
sealed up with two coats of Poshé top coat.

My conclusion is that
Mermaids must be real! ;)I like this,
despite the fact that this polish has golden undertones. Who knew that I could
actually wear that!?
